Taito’s plush line, Doqute, has introduced a new pair of oversized dolls featuring Puella Magi Madoka Magica protagonists Madoka Kaname and Homura Akemi. Standing at over 100 centimeters tall, these high-end collectibles are designed to mark the theatrical debut of the latest franchise entry, Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie: Walpurgisnacht: Rising.
Collectors looking to secure the items can place pre-orders through the official Taito Goods online store. Each plush is priced at 66,000 yen, with the pre-order window closing on October 13. The company expects to begin shipping the dolls in March 2027.
This merchandise release follows the August 28 Japanese premiere of Walpurgisnacht: Rising, which serves as the direct sequel to the 2013 film Rebellion. While the franchise continues to see high engagement, the production team has maintained strict spoiler protocols for the new film, requesting that viewers refrain from sharing plot details until September 12.
Why it matters: The release of these life-sized items highlights the ongoing promotional push for the new film, though it remains to be seen how the high price point and the extended shipping timeline will impact collector demand compared to standard-sized merchandise.
